Ambar Pe Mere Ek Hi Tara Woh Ek Tara Ho Tum
There is only one star in my sky, and you are that star.
Na Koyi Khuda Mera Tere Siva Mera Jag Sara Ho Tum

Oh, my beloved father, my life, please walk with me through every obstacle in life.
Tumhin Pe Toh Theharte Hain Yeh Rastein Mere Liye
All of my journeys have led me to you.
Dhadkan-Dhadkan Tum Seene Mein Har Waqt Dhadakte Ho
You are constantly in my heart, just like my heartbeat.
Jaun Kahin Bhi Main Tum Ho Ya Na Ho Par Saath Hi Rehte Ho
You are with me in my head no matter where I go, whether you are there or not.
